In He's All That, Buchanan plays one part of a teenage love triangle, opposite Peyton Meyer as the standard-issue "bad boyfriend." Meyer and Buchanan have played romantic rivals before: both competed for the affections of Rowan Blanchard's Riley Matthews on the Disney Channel sitcom Girl Meets World.
"We hadn't really seen each other since then. I don't know how long ago it was, years, but we talked about all that and it was fun to see him again and hang out with him," Buchanan told ComingSoon. He joked: "It was also really fun to fight him."
